#gafams — Public Fediverse posts

@kairoschimera Bonjour,
il y a les outils de @Framasoft qui sont excellent, dont le #framapad pour du texte collaboratif. Ils travaillent dur pour sortir de.la dépendance aux #GAFAMs

https://framapad.org/abc/fr/

Se plaindre que nos #impôts servent à engraisser les #GAFAMS à travers la commande publique, c'est facile.

Essayer d'évaluer précisément les montants qui sont dédiés chaque années par les administrations publiques à l'achat de logiciels privateurs, ça l'est beaucoup moins.

C'est pourquoi il faut soutenir en masse la proposition de l' @aprilorg sur la plateforme de la Cour des comptes.

#Votez vite, ça se termine le 4 octobre !

[Veille] très bon édito du dernier @USBEKetRICA. Il est question de culture numérique, contrôle de l' #IA, politique, et des modes de fonctionnement de nos démocraties https://usbeketrica.com/fr/article/bardella-et-l-ia-meme-combat

@lonjil @landley maybe #Google as a Corporation doesn't beg for money whilst offering millions in paychecks?

Granted, they finance it with their #Adware aka. #Browser and selling off users' data being member if the #PRISM program which AFAIK is still operational and none of the #GAFAMs ever apologized for!

But maybe that's quite hyperbolic from my POV...

What is needed however is real competition that is cross-platform and just works.
Whether one uses #Gecko or #WebKit or whatever is kinda irrelevant.
( I can also use #LynxBrowser but we can all agree that none of the "#TechIlliterates" and "#Normies" would accept that level of feature regression nowadays!)

Google may have droppted their "#DontBeEvil" #Canary but at least Google's #FLOSS-licensed code is 'salvageable' in the worst-case scenario just like #OpenSolaris's & #OpenOffice's code got salvaged into the #illumos and #LibreOffice projects respectably when #Oracle was allowed to buy #Sun and went full "asshole mode" on #OpenSource projects (which is why I don't trust #OracleLinux and won't use it!)...

@quincy @thomasjorgensen @lobingera @glynmoody in fact didn't they try countless times to force shit that noone wants onto people, from #Passkeys to removing the #URL to "#WebIntegrityFramework" aka. mandatory #ads that one can't disable...

Let's not forget #Google - like all #GAFAMs - was a #PRISM collaborator, is subject to #CliudAct and #ITAR and thus not only capable but able and willing beyond the legally mandated minimums to do so.

DON'T TRUST GOOGLE - or anyone!

"La lanceuse d'alerte et ancienne employée de #Facebook Frances #Augen était reçue ce matin à l'Assemblée nationale pour parler notamment des effets pervers des réseaux sociaux sur la société, invitant les pouvoirs publics à légiférer. Mais les #GAFAMS ont-ils vraiment le contrôle de leurs algorithmes ?"
